Review Visit: July 11th, 2016…read more Don't grandparents make the best food. While visiting Catfish Bend Casino, I figured I would see if there were any Ice Cream Shacks in the area. Luckily, I found one! So after the casino, I hit up Grandpa's to get some sweets. Parking here is pretty ample, so that's a huge plus. Inside is pretty spacious and they have a lot of flavors to choose from. Unlike a lot of Ice Cream Shacks, they only served ice cream and ice cream related things. No hot dogs, tenderloins, french fries here. I don't remember what I ordered from here, but I do remember it was pretty good. It scratched my itch but nothing beyond that. What really turned me off about this place was the worker behind the counter. His hygiene left a lot to be desired, which is reflected in my personal rating. I don't remember what he did, but it set off a red flag or two in my head as I watched him. But besides the one worker, it was a nice little place. I figured Burlington would offer a lot but this seemed to be the only ice cream shack that I could find on Yelp/Google.

Today was a beautiful 70 degree day so my Brother and I obviously had to go get some ice cream. but…read moreNo be did not go to Coldstone Creamery, or DQ, we went to Grandpas, for one simple reason. HOMEMADE!! This is a locally owned icecream shop, so no they don't have a fancy sign, no they don't have fancy cups, but I didn't come here for, fancy. I came to Grandpas to try their homemade icecream whose recipes have been passed down from generation to generation. I had the medium cone with one scoop of Dark Chocolate and one scoop Salted Caramel, and it was Delicious!! The chocolate was rich and the caramel was so smooth and creamy. You can taste the love! They also have a big selection of flavors that very from day to day and may sellout if you don't get there quick enough. You can buy a pint to take home with you, or even a brownie or cookie that they use to make their sundaes. Duh they have sundaes!! And I have to come back and try them! So should you!

The Beer Tent is a dive bar and it is generally filled with the same folks most nights. Each time I went, I was served by the same guy: younger feller with ginger hair. I forgot his name, but he was totally fine with me calling him "Seamus" whenever I came in. The counter top of the bar has hundreds of bottle caps under a clear layer of resin. It's quite impressive. Drinks are cheap and some of the locals are rowdy. The weekend karaoke was always fun and we never had too long for another turn at the mic. If I ever visit Burlington again, I'll most likely stop in at the Beer Tent to get some shots and chase 'em with a few beers.

It's grandmas old table and chairs, family pictures on the wall, bowls and rolling pins on a bakers shelf in the corner and oldies playing in the kitchen with someone singing along as she cooks. This is clearly family run. We got there within an hour of them closing and our waitress was ducking out a bit early because she had a hair appointment but it's ok because "mom would run the food". BTW-they aren't joking about what time they take their last orders and I understand why. It did take some time for our food to come. It was just mom/grandma aka the best home cook making the food. There is no prep line or sous chef here. You legit get homemade, from scratch straight from the kitchen food. Just like mom makes. Or like moms used to make. So be patient. Good food made with love will take longer than you might want it to but let me tell you. It was worth it.
